FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This patent specification relates to the field of devices configured tocover portions of the face of person. More specifically, this patentspecification relates to light weight devices which may be attached toan article of clothing such as a hat or glasses and which may coverportions of the face of the wearer.

BACKGROUND

There are many reasons why one might want to wear a veil together withsunglasses or other eye wear, or with a baseball cap or other hat. Asmore and more people are carrying cameras with them—in their cellphones, augmented reality glasses etc.—and as the face recognitiontechnology advances, maintaining privacy is becoming more and moredifficult. Celebrities and other persons concerned of their privacy maywant to move around without being recognized or disturbed. Other reasonsfor wearing a veil include religious views, protection from the sun andthe weather, and camouflage for hunting.

Some known solutions for attaching a veil or a mask to spectacles,sunglasses, goggles or other eye wear are described in the followingpatent publications: U.S. Pat. No. 2,669,717 A (Diggs Everett), 23 Feb.1954; U.S. Pat. No. 4,944,039 A (Ursula Dietrich), 31 Jul. 1990; U.S.Pat. No. 5,666,664 A (David Thomas Hamilton), 16 Sep. 1997; U.S. Pat.No. 7,481,530 B2 (Yong Chu K. Brillouet), 27 Jan. 2009; and CN203054372U, 10 Jul. 2013. These known solutions either require a special eye wearto be used with the veil or mask, or provide little flexibility inpositioning the veil or mask conveniently with regard to the shape ofthe face of the user and the frame of the eye wear. Furthermore, none ofthese solutions allows for attaching the veil or mask to a hat as wellas to an eye wear.

Therefore there exists a need for a novel veil device that can bequickly and easily attached to and detached from many types of eye wearand hats. A further need exists for a novel veil device that can bepositioned easily according to the preferences of the user. Finally, aneed exists for a novel veil device which provides a more convenient andstylish way to wear a veil with sunglasses or other eye wear, or a hat.
